Do you want to live forever? By the year 2050, you might actually get your wish -- providing you are willing to leave your biological body and take up residence in silicon circuits. But long before then, perhaps as early as 2005, less radical measures will begin offering as semblance of immortality (永生).
Researchers are confident that technology will soon be able to track every waking moment of your life. Whatever you see and hear, plus all that you say and write, can be recorded, analyzed and automatically indexed, and added to your personal chronicles. By the 2030s, it may be possible to capture your nervous system’s electrical activities, which would also preserve your thoughts and emotions. Researchers at the Laboratories of British Telecommunications have defined this concept as Soul Catcher.
Small electronic equipment will pave the way for Soul Catcher. It would use a wearable super computer, perhaps in a wristwatch, with wireless links to micro-sensors under your scalp(头皮) and in the nerves that carry all five sensory signals. So wearing a video camera would no longer be required.
At first, the Soul Catcher’s companion system -- the Soul Reader -- might have trouble copying your thoughts in complete details. Even in 2030, we may still be struggling to understand the brain’s internal workings, so reading your thoughts and interpreting your emotions might not be possible. But these signals could be conserved for the day when they can be transferred to silicon circuits to rejuvenate minds as everlasting entities. Researchers can only wonder what it will be like to wake up one day and find yourself alive inside a machine.
For people who chose not to live in silicon, virtual Immortality could still ease the sense of futility(无益) that now haunts many people. Individuals would know their lives would not be forgot ten, but would be preserved as a thread in a multimedia quilt that keeps a permanent record of the human race. And future generations would have a much fuller understanding of the past. History would not be dominated by just the rich and powerful Hollywood stars and a few elite thinkers. [br] We learned from the passage that ______.
选项
A、even in 2030, obstacles still exist in reading and interpreting human thought
B、nowadays people feel angry with the domination of the history by elites
C、by the year 2050, human beings can lead an everlasting life biologically
D、people can only "live in" silicon to get an immortal life
答案
A
解析
第四段第二句Even in 2030,we may still be struggling to understand the brain’s internal workings. so read ing your thoughts and interpreting your emotions might not be possible.,可见即使到了2030年,我们仍然还在努力地去理解人类大脑的内部工作机理,完全读懂人们的想法和解读人类的思维还是不可能的,故A)为答案。作者在文章最后谈到虚拟永生可能产生的影响时提到精英人物,意思是说目前历史记载的只是精英人物的故事,今后随着技术的发展,普通人的想法也可以被保留下来,作者举这个例子只是为了说明这一技术的影响,而没有对历史是关于精英人物的故事这一事实表示愤怒,所以排除 B);本文谈到的永生是思想的永生,是leave your biological body的,而不是生理上的永生,所以排除 C);精神的永生是指把思想储存在silicon circuits里保存下来,不是在集成电路里,所以排除D)。
